In the Gospels...the freshness, the life-like details in many places are so many proofs of their poetic source. The writer is telling of something now standing before his eyes, of which his heart is full. ... he is not remembering the events that he himself has ever witnessed. If he overhears those discourses, it is by telepathy; if he sees those scenes, it is in a vision; if he knows those truths, it is by faith.

Thank you, Necmi. - )It’s pretty dense. I’ll have to be in just the right mood to get anywhere with it. But I am very curious to see what Santayana has to say.
Thank you, Alexander. - )Good to hear from you. Discovered quite by accident. The title sort of sells it.
Thank you, Luís. - )I’ve read some Santayana. I like the way he writes.
Thank you, Ella! - )I thought it might make a good beachbook, but we can’t go to the beach. H’m...
laughing out loud, indeed the most wanted beachbook! I have no doubt that everything in Eden was actually placed on a beach premises...so could be a reason to go backwards to trace the roots ;))
Cool! Glad it gave you a chuckle! I didn’t know what to say. - ))
I like Santayana. Came across this quite by accident.
